Food was great - hot and cooked right, especially eggs over easy- which seems to be very difficult these days. Staff was friendly and welcoming and the theme (calamity Jane) was perfect. read more

Calamity Jane's Kitchen - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Custer, South Dakota

Disappointing. Came in for 2 iced coffees in the afternoon. Waited over 30 minutes and when I went to the counter one of the baristas just looked at my order and took a drink of water out of her glass and made a latte for someone that came in after me. When I finally blew up the waitress blamed ME for the wait. Not sure of her name but she had piercings and was outside sweeping the patio, came in and didn't wash her hands as there was only one bathroom for the coffee shop and the bar next door. For a town that must make its revenue off of tourists and tour groups, I would not spend money here. read more

I want to give 5 stars because the coffee is great! But just about each time we visited there (over a three week period), the staff was cranky and unhappy. A simple "Hello!" or "Good morning! I'll be right with you." goes a very long way. There was one particular morning when there were several workers who did not even acknowledge we were standing there. read more

Coffee was good. Breakfast burrito so big that we split it. Was OK. Staff needs training. I'll leave it at that.

We stopped here two mornings for coffee, lattes and smoothies during our stay in Custer. The shop workers were pleasant and working very hard! Our drinks were yummy! This is a must stop at a very cute coffee shop ! A+++ read more

What a cute place It's a coffee place place and also has amazing food. You can order the food and they will deliver it next door to the saloon. What a great idea!! I ordered a fish sandwich and it was hot out of the oven and so delicious. It came with sweet potato fries. I love going to small businesses and supporting them. read more

I stopped at Calamity Jane on my way out of town for a cappuccino and a quick breakfast. Prices were reasonable and their hot menu was extensive. I was not very hungry because of the large dinner the night before, but I would have liked to try some of the pastries. I got the Avocado Toast with scrambled eggs and a cappuccino with skim milk. The cappuccino was VERY foamy, just the way that I like. I did not try any other breakfast places in Custer but I can confirm that this one is top notch. This town surprised me at every turn, which includes this delicious breakfast at a reasonable price. I wish I had grabbed a T-Shirt read more

The cleanest little coffee shop around. I really enjoy they stay open during the winter while most businesses here close up since many are owned by people not even in the state (seasonal). read more

They made the wrong coffee for us. I took it back up, and the lady argued with me that that is what we ordered. However, my husband hates Chai, so I know it is not what he ordered. The lady making the drinks was much friendlier and said the two buttons for what was ordered vs made are right next to each other in the computer, and he got the correct drink in the long run. It's just not the most friendly experience. We ended up going to a different coffee shop the following day and had a better experience. read more

Very clean and nice local business with very friendly staff. Clean restroom. Ample of clean chairs and table to sit and enjoy coffee with friends. Staff is very friendly and work area is very clean. My coffee tasted same as my Starbucks coffee. Definitely recommend this place. read more

The worst meal we've had since arriving in town. I asked for turkey and bacon on sourdough bread not toasted with mayo on the side. What I got was maybe 2 very thin gray looking slices of turkey, smoked bacon on the heals of sourdough and it was toasted and already had the mayo on it. The hot beef sandwich was way too salty and the meat tasted smoky. The only edible thing were the sweet potato fries and onion rings. We didn't get our water until our meals came. We hardly ate anything and the server never even asked if everything was OK with our food. We will not be back. read more

Coffee is absolutely perfect- and I'm a bear about a perfect cup of coffee! The hot cocoa for my son was great as well. The fresh pastries were excellent. I particularly recommend the raspberry scone. Cinnamon Rolls also excellent! Service was friendly and efficient, even when busy. I highly recommend! read more

Any time you go to a town that has a lot of tourism, the local restaurants can be hit and miss. Many of these businesses don't need to rely on repeat business, because there's always new customers. On our recent visit to Custer, SD, near Mt Rushmore, we stopped for lunch at Calamity Jane Coffee Shop. I ordered the smoked salmon on everything bagel, and was shocked when they delivered it to me on just a plain bagel. Really wish they had told me they were out of everything bagels to give me a choice to order something else. It's not the same on a plain bagel. One of the children in our group ordered a grilled cheese, which took a long time and was the last person to get their order. My wife got the BLT, which had great bacon, but not much else and had a house made mayonnaise which was way different than expected. The help was friendly and overall the restaurant was clean. I probably wouldn't go back unless the full menu was available, which didn't seem to be the case. read more

great coffee, great service, and cute decor! My dad and I stopped in before we left one morning, and enjoyed a house coffee and iced vanilla latte. Both delicious -- support local! read more

Went for lunch at 12:45 on Sunday July 13. Grabbed menus, sat down and were greeted by a male server. Ordered a glass of wine and unsweetened tea. Waiter returned with drinks apologizing as they ran out of wine glasses. Had to wave him down to order our one appetizer and two meals. We also asked for silverware to which we were told we would receive it when we got our meal. 20 minutes later our meals arrived. We never got our appetizer. When I asked why, he look flustered and got mad saying I can't help it. I brought you your food as it came out. Besides the lousy service, he was mad at me for asking how you can serve a meal and then bring the starter afterwards. Never walked out of a restaurant for being treated badly in my life. I did today after paying for our wine and iced tea. Get out of the business if you don't want to serve people properly. I hope this real estate is filled by a restaurant that cares about its customers. read more

I love this place! Their service is quick, lattes yummy and food is great! The sweet potato fries are some of the best I've ever had. They've remodeled and put in more booths and tables. They have a good selection of breakfast pastries which I haven't tried yet so can't vouch for their goodness. They are busy so to me that's a testament to their excellence. I almost forgot to mention their prices are VERY reasonable for a large portion. read more

Cute place, good food but the service is terrible. Food was done fast but waitress left it so long it was cold when it came. (We could see it at the staff window when it was ready). It was a Tuesday and not busy at all. We were one of 3 or 4 tables. Won't be back unless it is a coffee to go. read more

Excellent latte and hot chocolate. Best in the area!!! 10/10 Friendly staff, excellent service. Ambience 10/10. Love the cafe read more

Great spot for a quick light breakfast in Custer. Bagel sandwich was very good as was the cinnamon roll. My daughter got a mango smoothie which she enjoyed and the coffee was pretty good. Very friendly staff and very clean restaurant. It won't knock your socks off but it's a very solid option in Custer read more

Went for breakfast on Sat morning. Large portions and good pricing. Had biscuit and gravy and one of the best I've had anywhere. Quick service. read more

Stopped in for a quick coffee. It wasn't that busy, but the ladies behind the counter were preparing the orders ahead of us. Not a peep to welcome us, and one of them kept looking over her shoulder at us, like what are you doing here?!? She finished making the drink and flatly asked us if that was ours. I said we hadn't ordered yet and she turned away and started talking to her coworker. A few minutes later and not even a smile or welcome when we finally got the chance to order. We watched after our coffees arrived to see them doing much the same thing to the other patrons, except it was clear when they knew one. One of our drinks was also incorrectly prepared as well. The coffee and tea was fine. It doesn't take much to smile or greet your customers and we would have appreciated being acknowledged when we arrived! read more

My husband and I came to SD in November during off season but this place was open! It was delicious. He had the burger, I had the fish sandwich. Both very good and good portions. We tried their coffee and got a London fog. Both of those were great as well. Service was kind and quick. I would recommend this to anyone traveling to Custer! read more

We were traveling through and decided to stop in for lunch. Food was ok. Their drink options were neat. We tried the Mango Smoothie, it was MEH. The service was quick and the staff were nice. The restaurant itself is cute! read more

This establishment is our go to place for breakfast before adventuring into custer state park. Always great food and service. Portions are large for breakfast, and one of the few coffee shops that has all the fixings. Appreciate that they are always open and not seasonal like a lot of the other places in town. The character of the building is very nice. Comfortable seating and very fun and creative decor. read more

Prices are very reasonable and you can tell it's a local place. The quality of their coffee is just okay. They use a sour bean so when you're drinking it black it has sour notes. They were out of a lot of things. A bit of a let down given the location. Has so much potential. read more

Good food good service....more than coffee...open late....right on Main Street. Super fast....super friendly people....

Stopped into this adorable café while visiting South Dakota and had the best burger I have had in ages! California burger with grilled onions and onion rings, was very delicious and also fried pickles I'm just sorry I didn't take pictures before it was half eaten lol also bought a couple bottles of wine from here. They have a a lot to choose from in the way of food, drink and bottles of local wine Service was great and she gave me wine testers to make sure I got the wine I wanted! I will come here again for sure read more

Great place for coffee, wine or snacks. The owners are super nice and the staff really knows how to brew a cup of coffee or espresso. This used to be the old time photo business that was in Custer for over 20 years. I can remember getting pictures taken here when I was younger. They have lots of fun gifts like shirts and coffee mugs as well as a large selection of local wines. They do wine tasting in the back area. Its a really fun place to drop in and sit to enjoy a coffee and talk with locals. read more

Not sure why all the great reviews. We ordered a breakfast burrito, breakfast BLT, breakfast bagel, and an avocado toast, along with some coffees and iced tea. Person who took our order was curt, if not rude. The food was not bad, but the regular drip coffee was like being transported back to McDonalds in 1982. For those too young, that means it was essentially a cup of hot with maybe 3 drops of brown liquid to make it appear like coffee. I'd skip this place and try one of the other fine establishments in Custer. read more

Best place to eat in Custer! Full. Stop. Great food, amazing coffee, and everyone is super nice! Excellent bakery, breakfast, and sandwiches. The muffins and cinnamon rolls are so good! Burgers and sandwiches are also great! Dog friendly to friendly dogs!!! read more

Great service and my spiced chia with almond milk was amazing!! It was a little chilly and rainy today so it was like getting a big hug!!

My husband and I have eaten here multiple times. It is predominately a coffee shop. With that in mind, they serve food for both breakfast and lunch. Service varies depending on time of day and crowd. They only have room for 1 cook, and 1 assistant in rhe kitchen which desperately slows down food delivery. They are as quick as they can be with them lack of kitchen space & room to work. I have no complaints about the quality of food but it's simple fare and as stated before, mainly a coffee house. read more

Stopped on our way out of town for coffee and breakfast. I got the biscuits and gravy they were very good. My husband got the breakfast bowl with gravy it's it was 10/10. Definitely recommend this place. Very cute inside too. We got to go service but girls up front were very sweet. read more

We went in thinking it was just a normal coffee shop but boy, I was wrong the service was incredible the staff were so friendly and kind when we ordered the prices were decent but when I ordered and the food arrived;and when I took my first bite, OH MY GOODNESS!! The food was beyond incredible the wings burger coffee and Italian soda was amazing!! Not to mention the scenery was awesome it was a nice cozy Wild West setting. This may be a bold statement but I enjoy this more than Starbucks! Please stop by in South Dakota read more
